Digital Marketing Case Study - iX5 Pest Control
A Partnership Built on Collaboration and Growth
At The Last Hurdle, we pride ourselves on building lasting relationships with our clients, tailoring our services to their unique needs and empowering their visions. One such partnership we’re particularly proud of is our ongoing collaboration with iX5 Pest Control, a Northampton-based business led by the highly knowledgeable and professional Matt O’Donnell.
The Beginning of a Creative Journey
Our relationship with iX5 Pest Control began in 2020, when Matt contacted us with a clear and comprehensive brief. The project involved designing four logos:
- iX5 Pest Control
- iX5 Honey Bees
- iX5 Support Services
- iX5 Environmental Health
Matt’s detailed brief was instrumental in helping us hit the mark first time – a rare but rewarding accomplishment for any design project!
A New Online Presence
Following the success of the logo designs, Matt entrusted us with creating a new website for iX5 Pest Control. The project involved writing content for the main webpages, with Matt once again providing valuable insights into his business, sharing his vast knowledge of all things pest related and detailing the service offerings.
In August 2020, we launched the new site, carefully designed to reflect the iX5 branding and Matt’s preferences. The result was a user-friendly, professional website that showcases iX5 Pest Control’s expertise and values.
Diving Into Content Creation
By March 2021, our collaboration expanded to include blog writing. This allowed us to delve deeper into the world of pest control, believe it or not these topics are completely fascinating and we have learned an awful lot from creating content for the website. Matt has a vast amount of knowledge that we draw upon which makes our job very easy!
Expanding Our Role
In April 2023, Matt asked us to manage iX5 Pest Control’s social media accounts and various other marketing activities. Since then, we’ve provided a range of services, including:
- Social media management
- Content creation
- Blog writing
- Google Ads campaigns
- PR pieces
- General marketing support
It’s been a privilege to contribute to the company’s evolution, witnessing firsthand how Matt’s ethical approach, professionalism and dedication drive iX5 Pest Control’s continued growth.
What The Client Says:
We have worked with Jules at The Last Hurdle for a few years now. We first contacted her to help with some logo designs, and as our business has evolved, we have gradually involved Jules in other aspects, including website design and hosting, blog writing, social media management, Google ad campaigns, and other marketing support. Jules has now become a key support service for us. She has taken time to get to know our business and is a trusted partner. Jules always responds promptly and professionally to our requests for marketing support, and we look forward to continuing this relationship as our business grows.
Celebrating Growth
For us, one of our biggest perks is seeing small businesses grow. Watching iX5 Pest Control grow from strength to strength over the past four years has been an incredible journey. While we play just a small part in their success, the experience has been deeply fulfilling.
We’re excited to continue supporting Matt and the iX5 Pest Control team as they reach new heights. Here’s to many more years of collaboration, creativity and growth!
